| Available spring and summer | Eucalyptus is a great plant that can be used for so many different things it is great for sore throat, sinuses, clean wounds, cough drops and just great aroma. Plant near doors or deck and it is a great insect repellant. Protect eucalyptus from the harsh winter as it is a tender perennial, so once the root system is well established it should return each year with some mulching and protection. | |
